I rewatched this video again, and i found it very informative. It’s interesting how much difference in value the dial can make. Also factory diamonds on Daytona plays a huge role compared to the other models. Also I found very interesting that the combination of dial and gem stones creates a scarcity in the watch.
I wish someone could do the same for Datejusts including for ladies. There are also some hidden gems only few people know about. Also smaller watches are more popular in Asia. For example in Vietnam people will buy 36mm Datejust and Daydate before they will buy Daytona or GMT
Picked up a MAMACOO's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!
Yes I think so a few surprises in there but expected the majority of the full gold and two tones to be towards the bottom which is the same with most other models currently I think in regards to above rrp, It does seem crazy that some precious metal pieces are cheaper than the stainless steel versions.
@@Watchtrader My opinion is unlikely to be of interest to anyone, but since I was asked. I think stainless steel sport watches specifically Daytonas are overrated. Putting them on par with precious metal watches and above two tone watches is simply ridiculous. There are exceptions to the rules, such as a rare dial. But this does not apply to the modern Daytonas with black and white dials.
Very interesting and I think it would also be interesting to do the same exercice with % premium above retail price. 10k above retail price is not the same for a watch costing 15k or 60k
Another great video! Question, how hard is it to get a two-tone champagne Daytona from an AD? Also, would you buy to keep long-term and wear or pass on it? Thanks in advance!
It just depends on your relationship with the AD. The timeframe varies massively. Whether you buy it to wear or pass on it is up to you, it’s a luxury purchase first and foremost. Thanks for watching
Interesting, not sure I understand your point but it depends on the market value of a watch as to whether you would get more or less than retail price for a watch. You won’t be able to sell a watch to any watch dealer for the price you see them advertised for.
The Paul Newman is in there. They changed the seconds hand to gold on the current reference 126518LN. Shame as the red hand was a nice detail on the previous generation.
crikey, the amount of work doing this video. printing those pictures out, getting the prices, reading them all out in the right order on camera, then the poor sod who had to edit it.
There is no baguette marker with brown outlier subdial platinum daytona. I’m pretty sure only the pointer marker dial has brown outer subdial rings while the baguette dial has the subdials all blue. Also I’m actually saving for an S&G white dial daytona so glad to hear it’s more bang for buck ❤. Also I submit this comment as my resume.
The previous reference Platinum Daytona baguette diamond dial did have full ice blue sub dials. The ones in this video are the current reference and both of them have the brown counter rings. Hope you get the S&G white dial Daytona soon. Thanks for tuning in.
I got a email today asking if I’m still interested in the gold ,black sub dials osterflex Daytona, I put my name down in 2020 , I said i absolutely am , I’m hoping that I may now get the call 🙏🏻
LOL....is this for real? The 'S' tier are all the ugly diamond bezels?! Couldn't pay me enough to wear those ugly pieces. Tacky. I'm relegating those as the P.Diddy collection only. It seems crazy to me that an oysterflex model isn't thousands cheaper due to production material cost over metal bands
Shame they don't pay as much attention to existing customers as they do putting YT clips up. Still waiting for a reciept for a Breitling I bought in August. Very bad customer service. Never never use them again!!!!!!
Hello, sorry about that. Please check your email inbox to find an updated invoice showing receipt of payment. I will highlight this oversight with the sales team. Have a great week
By placing diamonds on the Bezel, the main functional characteristics of the watch that makes it a Daytona, ie being able to measure the speed of the vehicle from the time it takes to cover a fixed distance is completely loss! So these models cannot be really called Daytona. They are just some fancy blink blink watches that has a Chronograph 🤭🤣🤣🤣 For me, Daytona Meteorite wins any day anytime. Low key understatement that many celebrities features on their wrist as well!
A waste of time discussing.... Firstly whatever the daytona it's down to personal taste!!!! Secondly Some don't like, it at all. Fcuk the grey market values.... Buy what you like and wear it.
This was really hard to watch. Between the corny jokes, and the repeated mispronunciation of the word, submariner, I had a hard time watching the entire video.
Incredibly useful - please do one for every Rolex series!
Appreciate the feedback 🙏
Agreed
@@Watchtrader Do Day Dates next
No Meteorite Dials? I just picked up one on an OysterFlex and think it’s stunning.
this was brilliant...top top content. Thanks man.
Please keep bringing videos like this, I loved this video so much
Great video! And +1 for a Day-Date and GMT ranking videos as well!
I love the setup with those little cards. Its waaaaaay cooler than just showing images ❤
Really appreciate the feedback. Glad you enjoyed the video
Very good summary video of the Daytona range. Well done!
Thanks for letting us know
Very interesting video. Amazing that the steel versions outperform most of the precious metals.
The same type of video for the DayDate would be great.
Thanks for letting us know, the feedback has been noted!
Love the rankings, keep doing them and often!!!
Thanks for letting us know
Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it and expected lots of them in the right tire
Thanks for letting us know!
Very good video
Love the content ❤
Great job! Subbed!

How about the discon rose gold oyster flex choc dial ? Which tier
wondering the same thing. Please answer!
No Jon the polish! Sad times looking forward to a Sunday lift and a hot polishing deal of the week 😢
Picked up a MAMACOO's watch as my first watch last month and I’m absolutely in love with it. Perfect size, looks elegant, very comfortable. Now my only problem is holding off from buying more watches so quickly!
It's interesting to see the diamond dials/bezels selling for such a large profit over retail. Since they're so rare, it makes sense, though.
My favorites are the Ghost on Oysterflex, Panda Steel, Platinum Ice Blue Dial and Black dial Steel. The look on the Oysterflex is growing on me.
Great video absolutely love the Daytona’s such iconic watches !
Was the ranking as you expected? Thanks for watching
Yes I think so a few surprises in there but expected the majority of the full gold and two tones to be towards the bottom which is the same with most other models currently I think in regards to above rrp, It does seem crazy that some precious metal pieces are cheaper than the stainless steel versions.
Excellent video
The ghost Daytona in B tier is crazy
Being able to read the red letters DAYTONA on your wrist is already a miracle and a privilege.
Appreciate this ranking vid, im not in UK but this does help ,my next Hunting in the wild process 😆👍👍👍
Great video. I am surprised to see so many variations of Daytona. I was under impression that Panda is the only Daytona Rolex makes 🤦♂️
Which variant caught your eye?

Shocked to see the yellow gold one i want in the A tier. You probably just made it a lot harder for me to get!
Where did you think it would rank?
@@Watchtrader i just assumed full yellow gold wasnt that popular. Personally for me, the full gold version of a watch is the top tier version!
The ‘Pikachu’ dial is the stand out dial in terms of market demand but of course it is very subjective.
@@Watchtrader it’s a really stunning watch. Hope to add it to my collection!
Interested to know - what would you be buying that model at at the moment?
Where does the Rose Gold Oysterflex with Chocolate Dial come in?
can you do one for all Royal Oak lineup
I'd love to see this for various other watch brands, really interesting stuff
Any in particular? Cheers
@@Watchtrader Omega Speedmaster would be interesting to see, Patek Philippe Aquanauts maybe
Very interesting and I think it would also be interesting to do the same exercice with % premium above retail price. 10k above retail price is not the same for a watch costing 15k or 60k
Appreciate the feedback 🙏
excellent video
Just got the YG Oysterflex TBR it’s amazing in person ✨💥
Great job
Appreciate it 🙏
I just bought a Ghost so I'm biased but I think it should have gone side-by-side with the Pikachu!
Maybe over time they will level out. Congrats on your new watch 👌
Stunning watch!
I’d place the ghost in A instead of B. Rest makes sense
One of our favourites!
@@Watchtrader hope to see the same ranking for entire daydate models

What is "sundust"?? How? Why?
EXCELLENT
Appreciate it
I'm sure some people have an interest in these videos but they are not for me. I like to see the transactions and the deal of the week!
Appreciate the feedback. Thanks for tuning in.
Rainbow and new Le Mans in a category of their own. Surprised they didn’t make the list?
They are off catalogue pieces. We chose not to include them here but as you probably know, they are very rare and command a large premium.
What is market price for Ferrari Red Rolex cosmograph daytona
Thanks, didn't even know some of these existed. Surprised you didn't mention the Le Mans. As surely that's S+ :)
Glad you found it interesting. The Le Mans along with the other off catalogue pieces aren’t ranked here but yes quite likely an S+!
I think the tier system should be based more on the % value that they could yield rather than the £ value.
Something we’ll consider for future, thanks
I think if you take most of the full gold daytonas to watch traders they will offer you retail or less to buy your watch
Interesting, not sure I understand your point but it depends on the market value of a watch as to whether you would get more or less than retail price for a watch.
You won’t be able to sell a watch to any watch dealer for the price you see them advertised for.
Where is the oysterflex Paul Newman dial with the red second sweep hand?😮
The Paul Newman is in there. They changed the seconds hand to gold on the current reference 126518LN. Shame as the red hand was a nice detail on the previous generation.
@Watchtrader oh, did not know that.
Guess my model with the red second hand is no longer offered.
great video. could you guys do the same with the submariner range?
We have done one before but it’s due an update so it’s in the pipeline.
Different video but enjoyable.
Appreciate the feedback Simon, have a great week
Right on 👍
Thanks for tuning in
Watching with my C-tier 116528 on wrist ...
Stunning watch 🙌
Tiers are all subjective ….. your watch is an S tier no matter what anyone says !
we didn’t see the Paul Newman 😔 yellow gold full bracelet
Hey nice video but you missed the meteorite dials? They’re even there in the Rolex configurator so… Otherwise great vid 👍🏼
Where does the gold with green dial stand?
That watch is discontinued. The watches in this video are current production models.
You might as well do a tier-chart ranking unicorns...
Super 👍🏻 bravo 🎉🎈
Thanks for tuning in!
MAMACOO's always amazes me how much beauty and precision are added to the parts of watch 99% of people will never see.
crikey, the amount of work doing this video. printing those pictures out, getting the prices, reading them all out in the right order on camera, then the poor sod who had to edit it.
You’re not wrong Ben. Glad you can appreciate it. Thanks for watching!
I’ve got my eye on the new 2024 Paul Newman Oysterflex. Such a looker ❤😊
Amazing watch 🙌
What about 116528 with MOP dial ? 🤔
This is only current production watches
@@Watchtrader Ok 😃 .. What’s your take on this?
Seeing platinums well below that price recently
There is no baguette marker with brown outlier subdial platinum daytona. I’m pretty sure only the pointer marker dial has brown outer subdial rings while the baguette dial has the subdials all blue.

Daytona is the King of Rolex
So objectively Rose Gold is the least popular for the Oysterflex Models?
I just sold my 2024 gold pikachu for 49k usd.
watched this cuz your wearing a tudor :)
It’s a great watch 👌
@@Watchtrader yeah! wearing my tudor bb36 (old version with smiley dial) for 4 years already. my one watch collection :)
Pikachu❤
where are the meteorites
The ghost is more than black dial gold
And Nico say Omega makes to many different Speedmasters
Forgot the laman Daytona yellow gold…..
LOL....is this for real? The 'S' tier are all the ugly diamond bezels?!
Couldn't pay me enough to wear those ugly pieces. Tacky. I'm relegating those as the P.Diddy collection only.

Where is the John Mayer?
John mayer is missing 😮
Yeah the Wimbledon, right?
Id still take the Panda over all the rest ❤
It’s an icon
🤣
Tigers’Eye,John Mayer(green dial), Orange Sapphire bezel,Rainbow Rose Gold all go in S Tier. Diamonds ruin the craftsmanship.
Bro, how is John Mayer not on this list?
Because it is a discontinued watch. This video only includes current production watches.
Where is loki??
Shame they don't pay as much attention to existing customers as they do putting YT clips up. Still waiting for a reciept for a Breitling I bought in August.
Very bad customer service. Never never use them again!!!!!!

When the A tier is significantly better than the S tier 😂

jhon mayer?
The worst Daytona is still the hotness
Daytona Rolex best of the best watch
Le Mans?
No deal of the week
slow week then?
Steady, thanks for asking!
Love the vids of the day to day operations of the shop and team. However, can’t stand these type of vids…👎
Appreciate the kind words. Thanks for watching
Agree
Same here! Stupid repeated corny jokes, as well as Miss pronunciation of the word submariner. Very difficult to watch.
Love these videos 👏 one on all patek models needs to happen 🙌.
Yet here you all are watching and commenting…. Must be not that hard to “stand”
4:25 I got the AD call for this one last month \o/
Nice, did you decide to buy it?
I know I’m in the minority but I just don’t rate the Daytonas look. Give me a day date, sky dweller or gmt any day over them
Said no on ever 😂
@ just my opinion mate
If only these small wearing unisex watches were upsized to a wearable manly format.
Just put them all in a bucket, the Daytona is my least favourite Rolex ever
A waste of time discussing.... Firstly whatever the daytona it's down to personal taste!!!! Secondly Some don't like, it at all. Fcuk the grey market values.... Buy what you like and wear it.
This was really hard to watch. Between the corny jokes, and the repeated mispronunciation of the word, submariner, I had a hard time watching the entire video.
There are no Submariners in this video?
